Arboscello Tree Card

This card measures 5ins x 5ins and is made using a ivory linen effect handcut card blank.
Floral Tree Arboscello Tree Die Memory BoxThis is the card I made for my mum for Mother’s Day.
Memory Box Arboscello Tree DieMarc lent me this die from Memory Box – Arboscello Tree, Style No. 98155, a while ago and which I am afraid I kept for a little too long without using, but when thinking about Mother’s Day I knew it would be perfect for my mum.  The flowers are made using a 1cm Papermania Daisy Punch.
Arboscello Tree Die Memory BoxUsed on its own, unembellished, it would look lovely on a Christmas card with just a little sparkly micro glitter on its branches and around the bottom or with just a lone bird sitting on one of it’s branches for another occasion ….. or covered in little hearts on Valentines Day …. there are so many possibilities. I am not sure where Marc got the die from … but I am sure he will let us know when he sees this.

    OMG - this card is A.W.E.S.O.M.E! What flowers did you use? Was it a die or were they packaged flowers? Your mother is going to love it!

    I borrowed this die to make a birthday and loved it so much I had to order one - but everywhere is out of stock so I am still waiting for it to arrive. Your card is beautiful.

    Lovely card Helen and as you say, a very useful die for a number of occasions. Your punched flowers look so pretty.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
